I think referring to those who don't agree with early ear piercing as high and mighty mums who spend too much time Internet judging is over the top.

I think she was referring to posts where babies or young children with their ears pierced have been referred to as "trashy/tacky/bogan" or the posts deeming that a certain "type" of person gets their children's ears pierced.

From reading all these posts I now have another question, what actually classes someone as a bogan? I have read many different things on here such as having a Strider is bogan and having a coffee table is bogan (seriously) and now getting babies ears pierced is bogan.

According to bubhub land the following classifies you as being bogan:
Owning a strider
Piercing children's ears
Putting headbands on baby girls

Feel free to add more...I'm probably a "bogan" and am unaware of other bogan traits (because the above mentioned things are normal to me).

Apart from the ear piercing I am probably classified as a bogan seeing i own a coffee table (although its in storage right now), I have a strider and my daughter loves her headband (she's 19 months however if that counts)

I dont have a daughter so I guess I don't have to worry about this issue lol. But if I were to have a daughter I probably would just wait until she wants them done. It's something to look forward to, something thats hers. she can pick the jewelry and know how its done and how to care for it. I guess a new responsibility growing up?
I just wouldn't do it so young because when the child grows up it may end up being uneven and have to be redone later in life. I'd also be worried about the stud catching on clothing, bed linen etc.
